Well Ethan, you should consider what you want to do musically 
with your machine before start assemling modules...my system 
consists of both wide range of soundgeneration/processing 
modules and cv/gate/trigger generators/modifiers. 
I think that a "ittle of all" system could easly render "must have 
more of all" symptom, It has for my part, starting of with a small 
monosynth setup, then expanding it over a 7 years period. Finally 
i,ve got the polyphonic-tactical-all-purpose system i wanted from 
the beginning, but couldnt afford from start back in 95.
So if you got money to spend, by as much as you can, to fullfill 
your needs at once, otherwise you´ll end up saying "oh i could 
really have use for this and that" and this i think slows down the 
creative process.

my suggestion is to by or build many mixers/attenuators (both 
lin.&exp&vc lin.), multiples, oscillators and vca´s...
Its also important to have a lot of cv/trig/gate 
generators/modifiers
I.e. the trigger modif. is a really great litte module, that i use in all 
my patches.

good luck!
